I am a Post-Graduate student from the University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka. Currently, I am working on an article about "Vaman Shivaram Apte", the great Sanskrit scholar. I could not find much information about him. If anyone could refer me some books or Articles regarding this, that would be really important for me. 

Thank you!

Here are some websites with information about his life.



More materials in Marathi. Will have to look for those.

Dear Ashok Ji,

     Vaman Shivram Apte [1858-1892] was among the five founding figures of the New English School set up in Pune in 1880, and later in 1885 this led to the founding of the Fergusson College. V.S. Apte was the first principal of Fergusson College. I am a student of both of these institutions. During his relatively short life, Apte contributed significantly to the development of modern education in Pune, and to Sanskrit scholarship.
